Podcast appearances and mentions of brad staats

This week I spoke with Brad Staats, a professor at the UNC Business School and author of Never Stop Learning: Stay Relevant, Reinvent Yourself, and Thrive. Brad also works with companies around the world to develop their learning and analytics strategies. He has won numerous teaching and research awards, including an award as one of the 40 most outstanding business-school professors under 40 in the world, and the Prize for best article in Harvard Business Review on leadership, and I learned about Brad’s book from the Adam Grant’s Next Big Idea Club, a pretty prestigious collection of business books. Brad has been a venture capitalist, an investment banker at Goldman Sachs, and a strategic planner at Dell. And today Brad’s going to share: -       Why we’re so bad at learning from our mistakes and three strategies that will help us get much better-       Why our bias towards action is actually hurting our performance-       Several counterintuitive tactics that will significantly increase your work performance-       How to run a meeting that encourages people to share their thoughts instead of shutting them down-       How to know if you and the people you work with are good at learning

When we consider the future of our careers, we know the only way we'll ensure continued relevance & viability is by learning & growing. But after 15 years of research, University of North Carolina professor, Brad Staats discovered most of unintentionally & routinely sabotage our own growth & development.  In his words, we’re “supremely” bad at learning. In his new book, “Never Stop Learning: Stay Relevant, Reinvent Yourself & Thrive” (Stanford Business School business school professor, Bob Sutton calls it “the book ever written on learning), Staats teaches us how to correct all of our blind spots to become the dynamic learner we need to be. In this podcast, Staats shares some powerful research – not to mention many wonderfully illustrative anecdotes – that will bring your understanding of learning to an entirely new level.  As you’ll soon realize, Brad Staats happens to be one of the smartest people we’ve ever interviewed, & maybe that explains why he’s the master of acquiring new information. So get ready to be a dynamic learner – you’re going to need it!

We talk to Brad Staats. I read Brad’s book, Never Stop Learning, as part of a book club I belong to. The whole book is good, but I really was struck by his chapter on failure. Now, anyone with a podcast knows that the way is littered with failure. Guests who drone on and on, recordings that fail, sound that makes it sound like your podcast is under the sea…I’ve pretty much done everything about this podcast wrong at least once. So, when Brad wrote that failure is necessary and good? Made me feel better! But why does failure feel so awful if it’s a necessary part of the process? Failure, with Brad Staats! 

How can we invest in learning? Brad Staats, author of Never Stop Learning, says we have to reconcile that learning can be an inherently “wasteful”…
